A lovely warm listen

At first I thought this was going to be a standard, rather over-sweet example of chic- lit, but it was delightfully easy to listen to, and beautifully narrated as usual by Karen Cass, so I persevered. As the story progressed, it became more interesting and a bit grittier. The Christmassy aspects are a bit overdone, including snow arriving right on cue, but who cares? With warm, real characters, a delightful setting and perfect narration, what is there not to enjoy? I loved it, and didn’t want it to end.

Sooooo boring

Nothing unexpected and dialogue repetitive. Very disappointing. Stick to Karen Swann for great Christmas books.

mediocre

the heroine was flimsy and weak. The narration was singsong. 3 stars were generous to be honest.

Oh so lovely!!!!

This has to be my most favourite Christmas story ever! I know listening to it in November is a little early but it has really got me in the mood and I will now relish some time with carols and presents to wrap!
The story is warm, cosy and very predictable which is just what you want for an atmospheric Christmas tale. There are moments that are a bit more challenging but only enough to stop it being too sweet!
Well, that's me done, I'm just off to look for properties for sale in Wynbridge now.......

I wish I'd never read this book

Lazy writing, predictable plot, unbelievable reactions from pootly crafted characters. The narrator was the best part of this book even though the editing was terrible and had several mistakes.

A truly heartwarming Christmas story

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this story. It was heartwarming, uplifting and really made me feel festive. Narrated brilliantly by Karen Cass. I will miss the characters now that I’ve finished it! Highly recommended!

Nothing says Christmas like a Coercive relationship

Had to stop listening to this as the lead was so pathetically entwined with the awful boyfriend … I know she will extricate herself but ffs she’s a drip made me feel all unchristmassy
